TiliK225 [7]

Answer:

if your looking for x then

Step-by-step explanation:

first add in the y by doing 10x+5(2x-3)=15 then 10x+10x-15=15 then 20x-15=15 then 20x=30 then divided by 20 for both sides which gets you x=30/20 or 1 1/3

Write an equation.
schepotkina [342]

Given:

y is proportional to x.

y=10 and x=8.

To find:

The constant of proportionality and the equation for the proportional relationship.

Solution:

y is proportional to x.

y\propto x

y=kx               ...(i)

Where, k is the constant of proportionality.

Putting y=10 and x=8, we get

10=k(8)

\dfrac{10}{8}=k

\dfrac{5}{4}=k

Putting k=\dfrac{5}{4} in (i), we get

y=\dfrac{5}{4}x

Therefore, the contestant of proportionality is k=\dfrac{5}{4} and the equation for the proportional relationship is  y=\dfrac{5}{4}x.

If a person gets paid $290 a load and receive 5% increase on top of that, how much more is he getting paid?
lesya [120]
That person is getting $14.50 more. Since he gets a 5% increase from the set $290, you must multiply .05 (the percentage) with 290 (that person's original load payment). When you do so, you get $14.50 and that would be how much more the person is getting paid.
